Zeb, he took the test three times. I don't recall being given that option.

Anyone can take the tests over again. Thousands do it every year.

Now I know where the baby is I fathered back in college

Damn. Here I thought my 35 on the ACT was stellar -- and I only took it once.

Pfft. I had to take two nationwide tests to get into Uni as well. 100% on the first, 96.5% on the second. If I had had 3 shots at that second one, at least one of them would have been for 100 too, I'm sure.

That's enough out of you Miss Big Brain.

I'm puzzled about that 2400 SAT score. Presumably that would mean that the English part was 1200 and the Math part was 1200. We didn't have such a thing when I was in high school but when I took the SAT's, around 1980 or 81, I had scores of 700 something on both parts, with a higher score in English. I was ranked in the 99th percentile, meaning that 99% of the test takers finished below me. I can't believe that the top 1% was spread out over a range of over 500 points.

That's the way it was when I took it in the 80's... I was in the 92%tile and I ain't that smart. I thought there were a bunch of dumbasses that year

I felt the same way. I'v always thought of myself as pretty bright but not in the top 1% of the population. Actually, it would be even better than that because that was supposedly only involving high school seniors who were going to college. I was more than twenty years out of high school.
